Python garbage collector is destroying objects with external references:

- https://github.com/aperezdc/webkit2gtk-python-webextension-example/issues/4

A patch is available here: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=731501

Safe to apply as it just check for ref count before destroying object.

This will fix all python-gtk segfaults I see since years!
